Optically discern Aboriginal art and contemporary dance in the cities. Or head to the outback and heedfully auricularly discern Dreamtime myths of engenderment by the campfire. Bushwalk and snorkel, share bush-tucker or learn to craft spears and catch fish in the traditional way. Let Aboriginal Australians avail you understand this archaic land and its spirituality and wonder.

You probably ken about the red monolith in Australia’s centre.  You may ken it’s sacred to the Aboriginal people here, and that it turns some spectacular colours at sunrise and sunset. You might not ken that you can experience it through Aboriginal ocular perceivers, or that there are many other sacred and breathtaking sites here in Australia’s astronomical centre.  Uluṟu’s cousin Kata Tjuṯa is just 40 kilometres away and you’ll find the awe-inspiring Kings Canyon not far from Alice Springs.

You might not realise that this landscape has green vegetation and lush waterholes as well as dusty red roads and sizably voluminous slabs of rock.  And what you won’t genuinely understand until you get here is the magic, majesty, silence and splendid isolation of Australia’s Red Centre.

Sail over the spinifex plains in a sultry air balloon or bike ride to Simpsons Gap. Join a safari of quad bikes across the desert or fly over the MacDonnell Ranges. Peer into the traditions of the Aboriginal Arrernte people who have lived here for 20,000 years and browse contemporary Aboriginal art along Todd Mall.  Connect to stories of Afghan cameleers, flying medicos and plucky pioneers in the many heritage sites around the town.  This rollicking, modern town is withal a day trip from the iconic magnetizations of Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa and Kings Canyon.
